About Little Garden
A sunny garden waits for a young gardener. Your child digs holes with a trowel, drops in seeds, waters each bed until the soil turns dark and pulls weeds or carries snails away while the plants grow. Then carrots, sunflowers or strawberries go into the basket.
How to play
- Rub or tap each spot with the trowel to dig a hole.
- Drag a seed packet onto a bed, then hold the watering can over it.
- On a computer, arrows move between beds, and Space or Enter does the work.
What your child practices
- How plants grow
- Patience and care
- Planning and counting
